“And he saith unto them, Be not affrighted: Ye seek Jesus of Nazareth, which was crucified: he is risen; he is not here: behold the place where they laid him” (Mark 16:6)
Text —Mark 16:1-7
Message
In Mark 16:1-7, we witness the most significant event in human history—the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Despite the sorrow and despair of seeing their Lord crucified, the women who came to the tomb on the third day were met with an astonishing sight: the stone rolled away and the tomb empty. The angelic proclamation, “He is risen,” changed everything. The Redeemer, who had been crucified and buried, had conquered death and risen from the grave, just as He had promised. This pivotal moment in history brings hope and joy to all who believe, for it signifies the victory of life over death and the fulfillment of God’s plan of redemption. Happy Easter Sunday!
The work of salvation for mankind is definite and has been completed. What seems to be the only issue for the multitude of unsaved people is that – “How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?” Jesus is counting on us to preach the good news.
